One Last Pull for this Knot to Break

[sleeper]

So I saw X today (kids).

There's a new girl at her work and I asked what her name was, told X I think she's "hot." X did this wierd little shudder and shaking of her head she does every time me dating is mentioned. I don't get it. She told me the girl's name, and that she is dating someone but X doesn't think he's "the one." X then walked into the other room to ask said girl how old she is and tell her, "my X thinks you're hot." When she returned I almost told X that was rather juvenile of her but I didn't.

She asked me to do something and I told her OM could do it much better than I. That didn't shock her like I thought it would. Because of these two comments by me X commented that I was being "cocky."

Before I left I asked why she didn't come to DD's play after work the other night, that DD was disappointed. She looked surprised and caught a little off guard and said it was because it was too late when she got off and made a comment about me not making DD's play last year (during the middle of the day unlike at night this year). I didn't say any more as I felt the point had been made.

I think I need to be "cocky" more often. It felt good, it would be a 180, and lastly (very lastly) X noticed.
